This study investigated the embedded depth of guardrail posts through 3-D soil material model and carried out evaluation of the dynamic performance of guard rail. In order to calculate for embedded depth of sloping ground, displacement of guardrail posts is analyzed according to the embedded depth of experiment variables. Through the static test of guardrail posts, the maximum deflection was found to decrease the interval. By performing the dynamic test using the Bogie Car, that is confirmed the elastic modulus of the soil occuring the maximum deflection. Guardrail posts is considered to need for further reinforcement in the larger slope than the plains. This study researched about maximum displacement and deviation velocity through dynamic performance of guardrail system and conducted analysis about protection performance evaluation of passenger.

본 연구에서는 복합소재를 적용한 가드레일 구조체에 대하여 비선형 유한요소 충돌해석을 수행하였다. 충돌에 대한 영향에 저항하기 위하여 [0/90/90/0]으로 적층된 Boron 계열의 보강섬유가 함침된 복합소재를 적용하였다. 또한, 지반-구조물 상호작용 모델을 적용하여 가드레일 구조체의 충돌 시 적합한 지반의 물리적 상수를 도출하였다. 특히, 가드레일의 복잡한 충돌 메커니즘을 다양한 변수 해석을 통하여 규명하였다. 변수 해석은 복합소재 지주의 두께변화와 이에 대한 충돌 성능의 영향에 초점을 두었다. 다양한 변수에 대한 해석 결과는 기존 강재를 사용한 결과와 비교하여 검증하였다.

In domestic construction sites, when installing steel pipe scaffolding and system scaffolding, the guardrails are installed after the installation of the work platforms. This conventional guardrail system (CGS) is always exposed to the risk of falls because the safety railing is installed later. In order to prevent fall disasters during erecting and dismantling scaffolds, it is necessary to introduce the advanced guardrail system (AGS) which installs railings in advance of climbing onto a work platform. For the introduction of the AGS, the structural performance of the system scaffolding applying the CGS and the AGS was compared and evaluated. The structural analysis of the system scaffold (height: 31 m and width: 27.4 m) with AGS confirmed that structural safety was ensured because the maximum stress of each element of the system scaffolding satisfies the allowable stress of each element. As a result of performance comparison of CGS and AGS for each element, the combined stress ratio of vertical posts in AGS was 6.4% lower than that of CGS. In addition, in the case of ledger and transom, the combined stress ratios of AGS and CGS were almost the same. The compression test of the assembled system scaffolding (three-storied, 1 bay) showed that the AGS had better performance than the CGS by 9.7% (8.91 kN). The cross bracing exceeds the limit on slenderness ratio of codes for structural steel design. But the safety factor for the compressive load of the cross bracing was evaluated as meeting the design criteria by securing 3 or more. In actual experiments, it was confirmed that brace buckling did not occur even though the overall scaffold was buckled. Therefore, in the case of temporary structures, it was proposed to revise the standards for limiting on slenderness ratio of secondary or auxiliary elements to recommendations. This study can be used as basic data for the introduction of AGS for installing guardrails in advance at domestic construction sites.

The elastic deflections and Euler buckling loads are investigated for a class of tapered and initially curved cantilevered beams subjected to loading at the tip. The beam's width increases linearly and its depth decreases linearly with the distance from the fixed end to the tip. Unloaded, the beam forms a circular are perpendicular to the axis of bending. The beam's deflection responses, obtained by solving the differential equations in closed form, are presented in terms of four nondimensional system parameters: taper ratio ${\kappa}$, initial shape ratio ${\Delta}_0$, end load ratio f, and load angle ${\theta}$. Laboratory measurements of the Euler buckling loads for scale models of tapered initially straight, corrugated beams compared favorably with those computed from the present analysis. The results are applicable to future designs of the end structures of highway guardrails, which can be designed to give the appropriate balance between the capacity to deflect a nearly head-on vehicle back to its right-of-way and the capacity to buckle sufficiently that penetration of the vehicle may be averted.

콘크리트 방호벽 및 중앙분리대는 교량의 부속시설이지만, 슬립폼 시공과 넓은 비표면적으로 인해 초기재령 균열이 발생하기 쉽다. 본 연구에서는 대형 교량의 방호벽과 중앙분리대 콘크리트의 외관조사 및 비파괴실험을 수행하여 균열의 원인과 발생 균열의 패턴을 분석하였다. 이를 위해 시공기간을 고려하여, 건조수축, 수화열 해석이 수행되었으며, 현장의 환경조건을 고려하여 소성수축 특성을 평가하였다. 평가결과 대상구조물의 균열 원인은 철근위치에 따른 소성침하균열, 소성수축 및 건조수축에 의한 복부균열, 재료분리에 따른 상부균열로 추정할 수 있었다. 또한 균열원인과 발생 패턴을 도식화하였으며, 시공 및 재료분야에서 균열제어대책을 제안하였다. 해상위 교량에 설치하는 중앙분리대 및 방호벽 콘크리트는 환경조건 (풍속, 온도, 습도)에 매우 민감하여 초기재령균열이 쉽게 발생하므로 재료선택 및 시공방법에 신중을 기해야 한다.
